Game Prediction
This week, several European countries decided to use the niche to host a round in the cup tournament. They did the same in Belgium; moreover, the last battles there were left for Thursday. Then the leader of the local championship, Union Saint-Gilloise, will come to Beveren. The journalists of the website have made the exclusive prediction for this match on December 7, 2023.
Beveren has been spending a weak season so far
“The Lions” made their way in the Jupiler League once. And they could have returned there this year, but the regulations let them down: this time, only the winner of the second division, Molenbeek, was promoted – it had got 1 point more, 69 versus 68. Obviously, the team is taking this failure hard, because it has rolled back among the middle peasants of their league now, and there is less and less real chance of repeating at least the 2022/2023 results. However, there has been a noticeable increase since the end of October. Taking into account the higher mentioned period, the team, having beaten Excelsior Virton, overcame the more status opponent – Westerlo, which is a representative of the elite football division of Belgium.
Union Saint-Gilloise is aiming for the maximum in the championship this season
“Les Unionistes”, having struggled with long vegetation, returned to the top division of the country in a pretty powerful way. Being already there, they were almost able to become champions from the very first trial – the experienced participant, Brugge, turned out to be stronger only at the very end of the protracted 2021/2022 season. As for the next draw, there was 3rd place, but with a good performance in the Europa League. When the coach, Geraerts, left the club, many feared a decline. Nevertheless, his successor, Blessin, is doing well. Even having slowed down a little in November, the team is still the sole leader in the national championship. At the same time, it performs (to be honest, not so well) in the Europa League. The team was not able to win the confrontation of the 5th round with Toulouse – it played a draw and now there exists only a hope to stay in 3rd place – there are theoretical chances for the higher mentioned result.
